We were on a family vacation and this hotel was perfectly priced and very comfortable. The breakfast next morning was fab. Location of the hotel was perfect to go around isle of Skye. The rooms were very comfortable and clean.

We stayed here for two nights as part of our 5 day coach tour. We received a very warm welcome on arrival from owner/manager/chef Ian and were sent on an "adventure" to our room (the MacKay Room) in the Garden Lodge. The room was overall clean and comfortable with a view out over the garden. The wee decanter of whisky... More

Stayed just one night - last minute booking and we had to find somewhere which would accommodate our small dog. First glance of hotel , grounds lovely but from front door looked run down, but don't be fooled - the interior is old fashioned but warm and welcoming, as was the host, and nothing was too much trouble. Dinner was... More

Common room with lot´s of books and fireplace... More

This hotel is perfectly located for an early escape from Skye. On first sight, you will be taken by the incontrovertible problems which any hotelier would have in keeping this 1929 property looking spic and span….it just cannot be done. Accepting the slightly decrepit certainty you enter by half a door (I never got the other half to open but... More

This country house is incredibly beautiful on the inside. On a cold and windy night in Skye, it felt amazing to have pushed the door open to house like this one. The furnishings were pretty and the tartan carpet perfected the look of the place. As we made a couple of wrong turns along the way and were quite worried... More
